I'd also add that the doctrine of praying to dead people (like, say, Mary) isn't sanctioned anywhere in the Old Testament.

2 Macc. 15:12-16

Maccabees may be interesting reading about the warlike family that tries to straighten everyone up (including those renegade priests), but it is neither the OT (Jewish Scriptures) or the NT (Christian writers).
